Yes,
it usually does take a bit of time to adjust yourself to a good seating position in a car like the Vantage (I've driven the 4.7l V8), but as soon as you feel comfortable behind the wheel everything comes into place. I'm sure the V12V is the most thrilling Aston to drive as it combines the highest power output with the compact Vantage package. Only thing for me is that I prefer the design of the DBS because the surfaces are larger and the aesthetic language has more space to develop and flourish in my opinion. This larger size however does make it heavier and less nimble so around a track even the V8V is quicker than the DBS. It doesn't matter to me however because I am not nearly a good enough driver to actually gain from that difference. The same thing applies to Porsche cars which are in most part notably better in the handling department than Astons, but unless you are a pro race driver or a guy who will track the car every month it really has no significance, and crucially the Porches look really lame in my eyes. I just want to enjoy the car to the fullest inside-out and of course, become an even more competent and skilled driver by attending some track-days and advanced driving courses, but at the end of the day 80+% of my driving is restricted to city streets so I'm under no illusion that selecting a car that is even better handling/more powerful than an Aston makes any difference whatsoever.
Oh yes !!!

I did get to drive it but the adjustment as opposed to my Clio RS takes a bit of time ... . And one does not want to bend the favorite car of his friend ... . As you can imagine the Vantage weighs a serious bit more than a 200 hp Clio and my guess is that...

Only two letters my friend ... starts with a V and ends with a W ... LOL... +/- 1980 VW Golf GLI Convertible, still a cool car to drive ... and faster than a Mini Cooper Diesel at the trafficlights .... . Bimbo

I think that style of wheel only made it over here in Golf GTIs - where those three letters are on wheel instead of VW. Or at least that's what was in the car I drove? I am having trouble remembering in my old age... (did you get my email?)

you're lucky to do what you love the most so staying late at work shouldn't really be an issue.... I can tell you that in my case not being able to find full-time work for the past two years has been by far the most difficult period of time in my life as ...
